Custom Avionics
CUSTOM AVIONICS launched
what it called Early Register - a new
program targeting small and midsize
aircraft owners that guarantees them
the opportunity to install new ADS-B
Out technology before the Jan. 1,
2020, deadline.
"With more than 194,000 aircraft
requiring modification, it is important to secure your place now since
demand will only increase as the
deadline approaches," said CHRISTOPHER MALTER. "We will assign
you a position, based on your schedule, and guarantee you that spot for
installation. If your needs or desires
change, we can accelerate your
installation, accordingly."
Additionally, if you register now, the
Early Register program locks-in the
price, protecting owners from higher
costs as the deadline gets closer. The
program allows owners to pre-order
equipment and pay for that equipment
over time versus a lump sum.
